The mistress died of overwork, and after rebirth, she was bad at raising her cubs

Caiping was so frightened that she immediately fell to the ground, trembling all over.

She knew that whether she said it or not, she would have no chance of survival.

If she admitted that it was her own doing, Huo Junyan would kill her immediately.

If he pointed out that it was Xie Wanying who ordered it, then he would just wait until Xie Wanying and the old princess returned from Xiangshan Temple before dying.

and……

Her younger brother is still in Xie Wanying's hands.

By then, Xie Wanying might not be in any danger because of the old princess's favor, but would she and her brother still have a chance to survive?

Cai Ping closed her eyes in despair. She seemed to suddenly understand why Xie Wanying wanted to keep her.

From the very beginning, Xie Wanying had planned to give up her as a chess piece.

If no one investigated Xiaoshanzi's death, she could still survive.

But if Xiaoshanzi's death was suspected, she would be the scapegoat.

After all, Xie Wanying was in Xiangshan Temple, so she could completely shirk responsibility for this matter!

Of course, Xie Wanying was even more certain that Cai Ping would not dare and would not testify against her!

If she died, her brother could still live...

Thinking of this, Cai Ping fell to the ground in despair and said, "Yes, it was done by me alone."

"is it?"

"Yes……"

"But you have no grudge against Yu Ge'er, why did you harm him?"

Huo Junyan's mind was exceptionally clear at this time, and he looked at the color screen and asked.

"I...I am..." Caiping couldn't think of a reason and couldn't explain it for a moment.

"Humph, it seems like he won't surrender unless he's beaten! Come on, fight me!"

Huo Junyan gave an order to the servants, his eyes full of determination.

Didn’t Shen Qinglan suspect that he was protecting Sister Xie?

Doesn’t Shen Qinglan doubt Sister Xie’s innocence?

But he had to torture severely to let everyone know that he was impartial!

Let everyone know too!

This was all done by Cai Ping alone and has nothing to do with Sister Xie!

When Shen Qinglan returned to his yard, Shu Yu couldn't help but ask:

"Miss, are you so confident in letting the eldest master try the case? What if he shows partiality?"

"What does it matter if there is favoritism? Can a slave really bring Xie Wanying down with his words?"

Shen Qinglan leaned nonchalantly on the chaise longue, letting Shuyu take off her hair accessories for her, and closed her eyes to rest with a tired look.

Shu Yu didn't quite understand, but seeing Shen Qinglan's tired look, she didn't want to ask any more questions.

Instead, Shuwen, who was holding a sword, glanced at Shuyu and said disdainfully, "Stupid!"

Although he was disgusted, Shuwen still started to explain to Shuyu.

Xie Wanying has been in Prince Zhan's Mansion for many years, and everyone in Prince Zhan's Mansion trusts her very much. How could they punish her just because of the words of a mere maid?

Besides, Princess Zhan also treats Xie Wanying as her own daughter, so how could she give up so easily?

Just like this time, even though Xie Wanying was under house arrest, she still had the ability to persuade the old princess to take her to Xiangshan Temple.

This alone is enough to prove how important Xie Wanying is in the hearts of Princess Lao Zhan and the others!

Besides, even if Cai Ping was interrogated, I'm afraid nothing would be found out.

Since Xie Wanying dared to let Caiping do these things, she must have already come up with a way to make Caiping shut up.

Without direct evidence, it would be impossible to bring Xie Wanying down.

Shu Yu suddenly realized what was going on when he heard this, and immediately asked with some regret:

"So, our efforts have been wasted?"

Shu Wen shook his head and said, "Of course not. Whether it is trust or loss of trust, it is not achieved overnight."

"Over and over again, slowly sow the seeds of doubt in the hearts of the old princess and the others. Then we will look for an opportunity..."

"One hit kill!"

There is no such thing as trust that will last forever. Going from trust to disappointment time and time again will always wear out people's emotions.

And this is the opportunity Shen Qinglan was waiting for.

The next morning, when Shen Qinglan woke up, she saw Shuwen and Shuyu coming in with a big bouquet of flowers.

There were so many flowers that they hid both of them behind them.

As soon as Shen Qinglan saw it, he understood what was going on and started laughing immediately.

Shuyu heard the voice, poked his head out from behind the flowers, and said in a depressed tone:

"Miss, are you still laughing? Why don't you take care of the second young master? He brought in so many flowers so early in the morning that our vases are not enough."

Shuwen nodded seriously and said:

"I checked the back garden of the mansion and found that there were no flowers to be picked. I wonder where the second young master got them from."

"Never mind, they are just some flowers. Let someone buy some more vases to put them in. After all, it is Yu Ge'er's intention."

Shen Qinglan waved her hand, looking quite happy. She even personally arranged a few bouquets of flowers.

Shen Qinglan looked at her work with satisfaction, and then ordered people to send the flowers she had arranged to Huo Junyan, Huo Junyu and Huo Jingyi respectively.

"Miss, you are so kind to the two gentlemen and the young lady. Everyone knows that your flower arrangement skills are unique among the young ladies of noble families."

Shuyu couldn't help but start to flatter Shen Qinglan, which made Shen Qinglan couldn't help but laugh and said:

"Just your sweet mouth."

Shuyu stuck out her tongue and muttered to herself while she was dressing Shen Qinglan:

"Miss, although these young masters and young ladies are good, after all, they are separated by their bellies, and no one can guarantee the future."

"Look, when the War King comes back, you should work harder with him and have a few children of your own, so that you can have confidence. By then, I will definitely raise your little prince and little lady to be plump and white!"

Shuwen was originally cleaning his sword at the side. Hearing this, he paused for a moment, his eyes sparkling, and he agreed seriously:

"I can teach the young master how to practice swordsmanship!"

Shen Qinglan listened to what the two said, smiled and shook his head:

"When women give birth, most of them have one foot in the gates of death. Even my mother became physically weak after giving birth to me, and she passed away not long after."

Speaking of this, Shen Qinglan couldn't help but sigh, and said with some regret:

"My father knelt in front of the Cui family for seven days before he was able to persuade my mother to marry him. But even after my mother passed away, he made his concubine his wife his wife..."

Thinking of this, Shen Qinglan couldn't help but sneer.

Marquis Jing'an made Zhao, who was a concubine, his legal wife, and Shen Qingli, who was originally a concubine, became a legitimate daughter.

This incident was widely circulated in the capital at that time, and she and her mother became a laughing stock.

"Men in this world are so fickle. There's no need to put yourself in danger for a man. As for the others..."

"As the Princess of Zhan, the mistress of the Zhan Palace, I am in charge of the household affairs and have power in my hands. This is my confidence. Why do I need a child?"

When Shuwen and Shuyu heard this, they were stunned, but soon they understood.

The eldest daughter in their family is the legitimate Princess Zhan and the mistress of the house. Why would she need to use a child to consolidate her favor?

Shen Qinglan sat at the dressing table, looking at herself in the mirror.

Her skin is as white as jade, her eyebrows are as thin as silk, and her eyes are as bright as stars. How could she still have experienced the vicissitudes of life in her previous life, running around to support Li Youyun?

In this new life, she is too lazy to waste her time again. The most important thing is to enjoy the present.

Shen Qinglan held a jade crane hairpin and inserted it into her hair, while asking softly:

"How did the interrogation of Brother Yan go yesterday?"

Shuyu shook his head and said, "I haven't asked yet."

"Then let's go and take a look..."

Shen Qinglan nodded slightly, and just as he stood up and prepared to leave, a servant ran in hurriedly, knelt on the ground and said:

"My princess, something bad has happened. That Caiping...ran away!"

"Ran?"
